You can paste AutoCAD LT objects, text, and various file formats such as metafile, bitmap, and multimedia into a drawing.
If the Clipboard contains a graphic object, AutoCAD LT inserts the object in the upper-left corner of the graphics area. If the Clipboard contains text, AutoCAD LT inserts the text in the upper-left corner of the graphics area using the MTEXT command prompt defaults. Pasted text becomes an MText object.
All other objects, except AutoCAD LT objects, exist as embedded or linked objects in their Clipboard formats. You can edit these embedded or linked objects by double-clicking them in AutoCAD LT; the object's native application becomes available so that you can make changes.
